Common Mistakes

  • Mistake: Using the present tense instead of the future.

    Correct: For future actions, use 'encubriré', 'encubrirá', etc., not 'encubro' or 'encubre'.

    Why: The present tense refers to current actions, while the future tense specifically refers to actions yet to occur.

  • Mistake: Dropping the infinitive ending.

    Correct: The stem is the full infinitive 'encubrir-', so it's 'encubriré', not 'encubriré'.

    Why: Unlike some irregular verbs, 'encubrir' keeps its full infinitive as the stem in the future tense.
